ConsThe more I use it, the stiffer my hair feels. I think I'll need to supplement it with a treatment or essence.
TipUsing it with the foam net allowed me to create richer lather.

At first, I was worried that since it's a bar, the lather wouldn't be as abundant, but as soon as I wet my hair and started massaging it in, the lather became incredibly rich and fluffy. Since I have a lot of hair, it takes a while to get it all wet, and it's not always easy to work up a good lather, so I usually do a pre-wash and double shampoo. But with this shampoo bar, as long as I get my hair well-moistened, the lather just blooms, so I don't even need to shampoo twice.
ConsMy scalp still doesn't feel quite refreshed or invigorated after shampooing. I wish the fragrance was just a little bit stronger. My hair felt a bit stiff and unpleasant after shampooing.
TipIf you thoroughly wet your hair and work the bar section by section, the lather will be even more abundant and it will clean every nook and cranny!

I've already used two regular bars of soap, and the soap dish is also all used up, so there was nowhere convenient to put it. And I was worried the shampoo bar would melt too quickly if I put it on the soap dish. So I really liked that feature! And the lather was much more than I expected. Of course, you have to work it a bit more than regular shampoo to get the lather, but I think it will work really well! The scent is also just perfect for my taste - a subtle, sweet fragrance that I love. Oh, and I used to get an itchy scalp sometimes after shampooing, but that doesn't seem to be an issue with this, so I'm excited to use it more!
ConsThere's really nothing I'm disappointed with. ^_^ This shampoo bar is everything I wanted. Ah, my hair does get a bit dry after shampooing, but I just use a conditioner after.

By eliminating unnecessary plastic packaging, a shampoo bar pops out to greet you as soon as you open the paper box. ■Unlike the square shape of other shampoo bars, the Pomie shampoo bar has a rounded, curved shape, which enhances the user experience. It is comfortable to grip with wet hands, and the arched shape allows for a wider area of coverage when massaging into the scalp. ■As someone with an oily scalp, I was worried the aloe vera ingredient might make it overly moisturized, but those concerns were quickly dispelled. The refreshing, squeaky-clean feeling I got after using it was wonderful. ■One of the issues those with oily scalps often face is a noticeable scalp odor, especially when exposed to a lot of indoor heating, but I didn't experience that at all on the days I used this shampoo bar! ■The fragrance is absolutely lovely! It's more of a powdery scent with a refreshing aloe juice note. The scent is so potent that just hanging it in the bathroom acts as an effective air freshener.
ConsThe good points are connected. ■The squeaky-clean feeling was satisfying, and as someone with an inherently oily scalp, I'm used to preferring shampoos that provide that kind of clean sensation over more moisturizing formulas. However, using just the shampoo bar alone may leave hair feeling a bit dry. I'd recommend using a conditioner or applying a hair essence before or after drying. ■While the fragrance is wonderful, it doesn't seem to linger much after shampooing. For those who really enjoy the scent, this could be a bit disappointing.
TipThose with shorter hair may not be as affected, but for those with longer hair, I'd suggest using a conditioner or hair essence to finish off the routine.

The fine foam particles made me feel good while shampooing.
ConsThe downside was that since it was a shampoo bar, the hair felt a bit stiff and coarse after washing.
TipA conditioner or rinse is a must!

First of all, it's eco-friendly! When using regular shampoo, I always end up throwing away the plastic bottles, which is such a waste. I've tried refillable products before, but this one is completely biodegradable, which I really like. The packaging is just simple paper, with no excessive packaging, so I'm very satisfied. ㅎㅎ 2. The scent is strong! As soon as I took the shampoo bar out, the fragrance was very intense. However, it's not a headache-inducing scent like perfume, more like a fabric softener. The scent felt very familiar to me, almost like the body lotion I've used before. I hung the shampoo bar in the bathroom before my evening shower, and the scent had permeated the entire bathroom. It's that strong! Some reviews said the scent disappears right after rinsing, but even after using the hair pack, I could still smell the shampoo scent on me. When I kept smelling it, it was a comforting fragrance, not unpleasant at all. ㅎㅎ 3. I was worried that the lather might not be good, but it created a rich, abundant lather just like regular soap. I have an oily scalp, and my hair often doesn't lather well the day after not washing, but this product lathered perfectly every time. And the cleansing power is excellent, of course. 👍
ConsOverall, there's nothing disappointing at all. ㅋㅋㅋ Normally, when a product is good, the price is high, making me hesitant, but this price seems reasonable for the quality. (It would be even better if it's on sale!) However, as I mentioned in the pros, the strong shampoo scent might be a concern for those who don't prefer such fragrances. And the great cleansing power might make it feel a bit dry for those with dry hair or severe hair damage if they only use the shampoo. But if you use a hair pack or treatment along with it, it should be fine! Although I listed this as a con, for me, these are all pros, so I'd like to try other products from this brand as well. ㅎㅎ

However, even after a week of use, there is still plenty left. * The bar has a loop attached to it, which makes it easy to hang and store. * Even after soaking it in water for a while, the bar doesn't become too soft and remains firm, which is great.
Cons♡ The scent doesn't last long ♡ As a regular shampoo user, my hair feels slightly stiff after rinsing it off. I really can't do without using a conditioner. Other than that, I'm using it without any issues.
TipFor a healthy scalp~~

It creates a rich, abundant lather! ✔️ The fact that there is no waste is definitely an advantage!
Cons✔️Fragrance: After a few days, the fragrance faded, which was disappointing. ✔️Usage: As a shampoo bar, using it alone does leave my hair feeling a bit stiff. I would recommend using a separate conditioner or treatment if you want your hair to feel soft and smooth.

I think it would be good for those who like fragrances that last a long time. This was my first time using a shampoo bar, and at first it felt a bit unfamiliar and inconvenient, but as I used it, I got used to it and it was fine. The lather is also good.
ConsSince it's a product made with the environment in mind, it has a slightly stiff feel to it. And the strong fragrance can be both an advantage and a disadvantage.
TipBe sure to use a conditioner or rinse as well~

The packaging is very simple. There's no excessive packaging, just the product itself, so there's no waste, which I really liked! The grip feels good, so it's easy to use. Most shampoo bars are round in shape, but this product is vertically elongated and slightly curved, so it's well-designed to hold and use. The product has a loop, so when I hang it to dry after use, the fragrance lingers in the bathroom like an air freshener, and I'm very satisfied with it!
ConsSince my hair is a bit long, being a soap-type product, when I wash my hair, the dry lower part of my hair tends to become a bit stiff and tangled. Those with shorter hair should be able to use it without any problems. And while it's an eco-friendly product, the ingredients don't seem to be that great, which was a bit disappointing.
TipI washed my scalp with this product, and used a regular shampoo for the lower part of my hair. Compared to washing my whole hair with a regular shampoo, this helped remove the oil better and reduced tangling. Adding a hair treatment would also help address the slightly dry and coarse part.
